Task control block of the task duplicated multiple times

Posted by jaswanthkamadan on June 15, 2017

Hi All,

I am using MC9S12XET256MAG contoller with free rtos version of 8.0.1. with code warrior 5.1. while debugging i found that two TCB(task control block) is available in the multiple location of the heap.

Is this expected? one more thing is i am using heap_4.c file.

Thanks & Regards Jaswanth

Each task has its own task control block, and if you create the task using the xTaskCreate() API function (as opposed to xTaskCreateStatic()) the memory will come from the heap. So I would expect the TCBs to be in the heap.
